I found two decent DS9 videos on Youtube. One to Johnny Cash's "Hurt" (before anyone points it out I know it's a cover). The other with VNV Nation's "Endless Sky" that covered Sisko's journey as the Emissary.

This one is really great:
Gul Dukat: The End Has Come http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATVh1tqtI80 - the author has bravely incorporated the Pah-wraiths storyline... you might have already know from my 100 rants that I despise the storyline, but the video is pretty good and almost manages to make sense out of it.

Another one, by the same author, was even funnier: Strange Bedfellows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cDNIuWdSQg but unfortunately the music track ("Strangers in the Night" by Frank Sinatra) has been disabled by Youtube Just play "Strangers in the Night" over it, and it becomes really hilarious - especially the line "something in your eyes was so exciting..." (guess which scene that was set to...)

My favorite Star Trek fanvideo is Make This Go On Forever - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfdPwvA9wIQ - about Spock from both realities, Prime and Alternate - with clips from ST09 as well as TOS and TWOK, set to the Snow Patrol song. (Make sure you read the description!)

I used to have a bunch of great BSG videos in my Favorites, but most of them seemed to be taken down.
They included a Baltar video set to Muse "Mao of the Problematique", Helo video set to the same song (it is still on YT, but YT forced the author to change the song to something stupid), a Baltar/Six video set to "One Caress" by Depeche Mode, a Baltar video set to "The Great Below" by Nine Inch Nails, a Starbuck video with clips from "Maelstrom" set to "Give Me Strength" by Over the Rhine and another one with the same theme set to "Home" by Depeche Mode, two different Boomer/Chief videos set to "Missing" by Evanescence, a video about Baltar's trial set to "Walking In My Shoes" by Depeche Mode (which I gave the idea to my YT friend for, and he made a really good video... I haven't made any of my own yet, but I will)...

Location: Ouch! Forgotten already? You were just down there 20 minutes ago.

Re: Favorite fan-made music videos?

Johnny Cash's "Hurt" is a great song for really torturous subject matter. I recall a pretty good Angel video on the subject that chronicles Wesley's arc.

"Holding out for a Hero" generally yields very good videos in any fandom. I've seen quite a few good ones set to that, including a couple Doctor Who videos (Jon Pertwee & David Tennant) and a Torchwood video.

I can't post anything videos right now, but I will try to add them in later: Someone swapped the music intros on NuBSG and the U.S. version of The Office. Surprisingly it really changed the feel for both shows. My favorite though is someone did an almost shot-for-shot remake of Journey's horrible Separate Ways video. Extreme cheese, but it worked.
